 AA> Setting the scene.. The two main subjects of this story are a mother
 AA> and daughter (both very close family friends of mine). They and the
 AA> rest of their family decided to spend a few days in their cottage
 AA> about 40 minutes drive north of my town for a few days during the
 AA> Christmas holidays.
 AA> This is their Christmas Eve story..
 AA> "Sadly this Christmas didn?t turn out as planned.
 AA> "Being holed up here is nice. Time to decompress. Although it takes
 AA> planning to deal with not having the water turned on, it?s really not
 AA> an issue for us. We melt snow for washing dishes, and bring up
 AA> drinking water.
 AA> "Kat (daughter) and I did have an adventure Christmas Eve between our
 AA> zoom chat with the extended family and the church service stream. We
 AA> had planned to make dinner in between but realized we forgot the
 AA> butter. Kat and I popped out to the little shop in Lake St Peter. It
 AA> was about 4:30 and it had already closed. It was drizzling and getting
 AA> dark. We called the General store in Maynooth and we had 12 minutes to
 AA> get there before they closed. We bee lined it there and not only got
 AA> the butter but the LCBO was still open so picked up another bottle of
 AA> bubbly.
 AA> "The rain had turned to thick heavy snow so quickly that our drive
 AA> back was slow. The bare road was now snow covered and snotty, as I
 AA> call it. It was that hypnotic snowfall coming at the window.
 AA> "Kat and I were belting out Christmas songs when we saw weird vertical
 AA> flashing lights before the turn off for the cottage. It was a pick up
 AA> truck that had slid off the road and turned on its side. It must have
 AA> just happened. We called 911 and climbed over the mound of snow to get
 AA> to the truck. I could see movement but because the air bags blew, the
 AA> cabin was full of the powder that?s in them. He was ok, thankfully but
 AA> could not get the door open to climb out the other door. Kat was able
 AA> to climb up enough to get the door open so he could get out. This guy
 AA> was 85+. We got him in our truck, covered him in a blanket and waited
 AA> for emergency services to arrive. It took a while. He had been on his
 AA> way to our north road to visit a buddy for tea when his wheel caught
 AA> the shoulder and pulled him off the road into the ditch and trees. He
 AA> called his wife from my phone ( who is also as old as dirt) who could
 AA> not figure out how to get their mini van in gear. He was trying to
 AA> explain it. Oy!  I think that scared us more. It was really snowing
 AA> now.
 AA> "Finally the police arrived. The ambulance was on its way to check him
 AA> out too. He said his neck was sore but needed to get back to the farm
 AA> to do chores. He has a few hundred chickens, a dozen goats and 2
 AA> horses. We told him we?d get eggs from him next season.
 AA> "Needless to say that adrenaline rush had us both shaking. We got back
 AA> to the cottage without issue.
